10 Things You Could Send Instead Of A Dick Pic

Being sent unsolicited pictures is a problem on dating apps. While we have always encouraged that inappropriate behaviour be reported, those dick pics still get sent... 


But now we have launched ‘private detector’: technology which detects nude images and blurs them out before they can be seen by the recipient - giving you the choice to view it, or delete/block/report them.


Since some men believe that sending a picture of their dick will get them a date, if you now need some inspiration for what you can send instead, we put together a list of ten other things you could send that your match would actually be pleased to see.


10 Things You Could Send Instead Of A Dick Pic:


1. A Compliment


Everyone loves compliments - way more than they like a random dick in their DMs. 


If you’ve just matched, why not mention how great they look in their pictures?


If you’ve been talking for a while, let them know how much you appreciate them, or what a good listener they are.


Of course, your compliments should always be honest and genuine - they can become cheesy or even creepy if they’re not sincere. 


Tbh we should all give more compliments, to pretty much everyone in our lives. Definitely can’t say the same about dick pics. 


2. A Joke


If you don’t know what you should send as the first message when you’ve matched with someone, try opening with a joke. 


If the conversation has stalled and you’re considering sending a no context nude to liven things up, please send a joke instead - there’s a chance they could end up laughing either way, but at least with a joke it’s funny for the right reasons.


3. A Picture Of Your Pet


Pictures of pets are always a safe bet to send, the cuter the better. 


You know what’s not cute? A dick. 


4. A Selfie


Once you’ve been talking for a while, if you’ve taken a particularly good selfie you’re proud of, why not send it to your match? 


It might get sparks flying, as well as reminding them what a catch you are. 


Granted, you might have also taken a particularly good picture of your dick, but you shouldn’t send it without asking first. 


5. A Good Meme


At this point you can get fairly far in a conversation only communicating via memes. Show off your taste by sending the spiciest meme you have, and it’ll be sure to impress. 


But, and I can’t stress this enough, it has to be good. Nothing old or basic. 


Memes are better to send than dick pics because everyone is always happy to see one, and they’ll actually want to save it and send it to their friends. 


6. A Good Morning Text


A good morning text lets them know you’re thinking about them. It shows that you’re sweet, caring, and thoughtful.


A random dick pic does the opposite. 


7. A Drink


If you’re both staying in, you can order a drink (or several) to them, and you can have a virtual date and get to know each other better. 


A dick pic they weren’t expecting lets them know exactly what you’re like: someone not worth speaking to. 


8. A Poem


There’s nothing more romantic than a poem - and whether it’s a masterpiece or the worst thing ever written, it’ll definitely get a reaction. 


We know a picture is worth a thousand words, but some well-chosen words will always be more appreciated than a poorly considered dick pic. 


9. A Pizza


Everyone prefers a surprise pizza to a surprise sausage.


If you’ve been talking for a while, you could try buying them dinner. An age-old romantic gesture, but instead of going to a fancy restaurant, you order them a pizza or whatever takeaway they’re in the mood for.


 It’ll win you a lot of points, and you can find out what kind of food they like for the future. 


10. Your Favourite Song


Your favourite song reveals a lot about you, sometimes in ways you yourself could never fully articulate or understand. 


A picture of your dick just reveals...your dick. 


Sharing your favourite songs will let you bond over music, like people have been doing for thousands of years. 


Sharing your dick will get you blocked.


So there’s a list of ten things to send instead of a dick pic. Hopefully more people will begin to realise this behaviour is never acceptable, until it’s gone for good.
